published Friday, October 25, 2013

A Park Ridge Drive resident reported that when she was in her kitchen Thursday night she heard a door knob jiggle and saw it moving. When she turned on an outside light she saw someone running away, Athens-Clarke police said.

The woman was unable to give a description of the person, except that he wore a garment with a loose hood that fell off his head as he ran, according to police.
